Find your new home

Would you like group housing where your roomies share your interests, are similar in age, are a good personality fit? Our service sets you up for a positive share housing experience, where your housemates become your friends. Life still has its challenges, but when your friends share similar stories, it won’t seem so hard.

Take time out

Respite makes sure you’re cared for and supported when you need a break. We have short term accommodation in two locations, staffed with highly qualified and supportive carers.

Care for your family

You’re part of a family who loves you. Some care for you every day. We know the pressure some families are under and we’re quick to identify when someone you love could use a break, or a shoulder or ideas on how to best care for you.

Day programs let you spread your wings

Let us know what you’d like to do on your days with us. If you want to be active, learn a skill, or go on an excursion, it’s all possible. One on one or in small groups, you can discover new interests and hobbies, keep your body moving and do so with friends or on your own.

Therapies

Allowing us to arrange your therapeutic and allied health appointments through our service means we can create for you a flexible timetable of care that suits you and your family.

What our community says about Flintwood

The care they give

Knowing some of the staff at Flintwood and being at a few events, I can honestly say that they care about their participants and they have a lot of fun whilst doing a great service.

Able to make choices

I have been coming to Flintwood for 13 years now and I really love. I am the chairperson on the participant committee. We meet every month and we represent the whole organisation with any issues. We love happy stories. I am able to make choices. I am able to choose where I live thanks to the NDIS.

Really great service

My daughter has been going to Flintwood Harris park for 7 years. She loves it. The staff are really great with her. They take her out places I can't and they do so much stuff in the house. And it is so good to have a break and for her too. Get out and about in the community and see her friends. It's a really great service.

Made many new friends

My Daughter has been attending Flintwood since 1995, when it was known as TRAILS Post School Options, she has loved going there all these years, she has been part of the Day Service, since they were at Mons Rd Westmead. She has grown so much since leaving school n attending this wonderful day service. Currently, she is attending the day service site at 9 - 38/39 Salisbury Road, where she has made many new friends, and apparently, has a boyfriend there Ron, they both love going there. In approx 3months she will be moving out of our family home n moving into a home at Kellyville with 4 other ladies from Flintwood. She is very excited about this n planning what she wants to take with her, some how i dont think her room will be big enough.
A very special thank you to everyone involved at Flintwood for enhancing the lives of our Sons n Daughters. Deanna n Bruce Grant

I can see and feel the love

My son Denzel has been attending Flintwood Disability Services in Harris Park since 2015, straight after graduating from Holroyd School in Merrylands. Before he transitioned to the adult Community Participation Program, I was so worried about how he will fit in again in a new environment after having been so wonderfully nurtured by Holroyd School for 13 years. I went together with a group other parents to visit and had a look at 5 different disability service providers and spoke to each of the centre managers. Flintwood Disability Services stood out as The BEST of them all in terms of professionalism, the range of services they offer, the safety and security of their centres. Even during their busiest day, the General Managers came down and together with the Centre manager answered all of our questions in the most professional-yet-easy-to-understand way. Patricia Hartlett who is the centre manager, was most helpful and accommodating when the time came for Denzel to register and attend Flintwood. The support workers are wonderful. I can see and feel the love, care and support they have for my son. Denzel is very happy and content and is learning many new and exciting things to do. I have no hesitation in highly recommending Flintwood Disability Services to anyone who may be looking for a disability service provider.

Giving him his independence

My son has attended Flintwood Disability Service At Harris Park for some years now and he loves it. Flintwood provides my son with many services and allows him to be an active part of the community as well as giving him his independence whilst he is out in the community. I can not speak highly enough of the staff that work with my son and find great comfort in the fact that he is so very well looked after when he attends the centre. I highly recommend Flintwood Disability Service At Harris Park for when your child leaves school and you are looking for an option to suit the needs of your adult child
